Tatra T3 are for Prague, what Doubledecker busses are for London. The city is missing a huge opportunity by not trying to use this iconic vehicle in its self-presentation. Again, London is a great example in this respect.

It has issues like that is not great for disabled and old people because of the quite high floor. Hoewer Prague operates line 23 which showcases T1,T2 and T3 models.
It is perhaps because T3 is already used extensively by Brno which uses them quite extensively bot in service and propagation. And calls them šalina (could be transcribed as shalina) as well, but that is general term for any streetcar/tram in Brno as it is derived from original name of the system - Elektrische Linien.
@ that was already fixed with the T3R.PLF model, of which 50 trams are already in prague and more will be built soon, mainly to make the night service wheelchair accessible.

@@damn3256 It is not really fixed, but it is an improvement for disabled people. But for me personally I prefer regular T3 or the Skoda 15T.
@@realdronthego Your effort is apparent, but it can still be improved. - you pronounce some soft consonants as hard ("ď" in Ďáblice as Dáblice, "ň" in Braník as Branýk). However, your soft "ť" in "sídliště", "výstaviště" or "náměstí" is mostly perfect, as well as your "ň" in "Holyně". - consonant clusters are a frequent problem for foreigners, just like the sound "ř". "Petřiny" you pronounce as "Péčiny". The "e" should be shorter and the "tř" cluster should not merge into one sound. However, your "ř" in "Hostivař" is perfect ("Řepy" and "Spořilov" you pronounced rather as "Žepy" and "Spožilov", "Modřany" as "Modž'ny", and "Kotlářka" as "Kodláška"). * "hřbitovy" you pronounced as "břitovy". The "ř" was perfect, but "hřb" changed to "bř". However, the Old Czech really used "břitov", and this form is preserved in the Chod dialect. :-) "Královka" sounds rather as "Karlóvka". * your "r" is somtimes very German, but for example in the line 18, you pronounced perfect Czech "r". * "vozovna" you pronounced as "vozofna". The "v" sound sometimes actually loses its voice ("Žižkof" is correct), but before "n", "v" remains voiced. Also "Lehovec" was sometimes pronounced as "Lehofec". * in some words (Radlická, Podbaba, Královka) you have the word stress on the second syllable, instead on the first one. Czech and Slovak are atypical in this respect, and it is very difficult for foreigners to get used to it. It is also questionable whether the Czech word stress should be preserved when using a Czech word in an English sentence. Overall, it can be seen that you have learned the correct pronunciation of Czech and the meaning of the sounds and have carefully tried to follow it. You usually have the vowel lengths correct, you also usually pronounce the sound "š" correctly (some foreigners tend to ignore hooks) etc. Reading Czech must be as difficult for you as when a Czech tries to read, for example, Hungarian. After all, my written English here is also far from perfect.
You forgot to mention that the network is like this because of the reconstruction of the Ohrada - Palmovka bridge. Normally most of the lines have different routes, such as line 1 which normally starts at Sídliště Petřiny and ends at Spojovací, or line 10 which normally starts at Sídliště Řepy and ends at Sídliště Ďáblice. I could go on and on since this reconstruction affected so many lines, but i thought it would atleast be worth a mention.
i salute you for your bravery to pronounce all the local names we have for places. just the Ř in Sídliště Petřiny and Ď in Ďáblice are quite hard. and the škoda as well. people usually go in with Skoda
As a czech person from prague, i didnt know most of this informations, so thank you very much for making this video, cuz now i am slightly more smarter. And i also love your effort of saying the czech names of these tram stations
By the way, the tram routes in Prague and their numbers has already changed so many times that most line numbers no longer have historical continuity and timeless identity. Rather, individual track sections and branches have their own identity. The Modřany track as a so-called "rychlodráha" from the time of late socialism, late 1980s. The Barrandov track from early 2000s as an architectural exhibition, with monumental stations, an elevated section and two tunnels. Radial tracks with a tram strip in the middle of the street towards the city periphery, built from 1930s to 1980s. Narrow passages through the city center, the most picturesque in Malá Strana, and the narrow passages at Letenská street or Křižovnické náměstí, and the serpentine of Chotkova street through the castle moat. The most congested traffic arteries Jindřišská-Vodičkova, or Ječná, and Spálená - Národní. The steepest tram line in Trojská street, with special safety regulations. The most "natural" section between the Ohrada and Krejcárek stops, resembling a railway, and the elevated track across the valley from Krejcárek to Palmovka. You mentioned the specific section along the Prague Castle, where the track is divided by a line of old trees, or led on the crest of the baroque city walls. The sunken tram junction at Vltavská, and tram tunnels under intersections at Bulhar, Těšnov and Třebenická ( in addition to the two mentioned in Barrandov). The atmosphere of old times breathes the most from the old depots as Strašnice, Střešovice, Žižkov or Kobylisy (or the abandoned at Vinohrady/Orionka), or from the track loop at Výstaviště, in the park among old trees.
Apart from the trams on regular operation there are also special historical lines 41 and 42 operating only in summer and using even older historical designs. And tram enthisiasts can hire a historical tram for a party, also for this purpose there is a luxury party tram T3 Coupé. And a relatively new but instantly beloved addition Mazací tramvaj, a modified Tatra T3CS used for greasing the rails and watering the grass belts. There is a non-stop live stream when it's operating and in christmas season it rides around the city with a christmas tree with colours remotely controlled by anyone over internet.
The best thing is that these are flippin imortal, literally nothing phases T3 they dont care is they rot, freeze or get wet, this thing will outlive most of us. Happy to work on them.

Been living in Prague my whole life, can say this video is 100% right about everything. Also, I love how you pronounce the start/end stations in english at around 4:30 :D
The automatic subtitles are great, never thought that Libuš could be called Lee Bush 😀it is good they didnt try to say Vypich, like Vypič 😀You should have seen line 9 at roush hour, it is totally jamed, like line C of metro
No, not good. I used to caption other people's video when this site had something called community submissions and I was disappointed when that was removed.
Fun fact. My grand grandmother worked in Tatra Smíchov where T3 was made. We lived next to the factory. Now there is a shopping mall.. Well, at least the trams still serve all around the world. Best tram imo, but you might call me biased. 😆
Lovely video! Suggestion for improvement - unless I'm mistaken you have forgot to mention night trams 91-99 (quite useful after party) with a central transfer stop "Lazarska".
Remember how you told about all the extensions going on? Well, the extension from Holyne to Slivenec got recently opened, Sídliště Modřany to Libuš also opened few months ago and Divoka Šárka to Sídliště Dedine is opening within a week, stunning how fast is the pace of expansion at the moment!
8:30 there aren't only 2 historic trams. There are more. From 2 axle Ringhofer trams with multiple old coaches, through tatra T1, T2, T3,(T4 as a view tram), T6 to KT8D5. And some work trams too.
There are more, but they somehow are not mentioned in the fleet data www.dpp.cz/spolecnost/o-spolecnosti/dpp-v-datech The T6A5s have left this as well, according to this news: www.novinky.cz/clanek/domaci-praha-vyrazuje-tramvaje-t6a5-v-sobotu-vyjedou-naposled-40363396?amp=1 I have added this clarification to the description😁
@@realdronthego That site shows trams, that run on normal lines or 23. They don't show trams, which are at vozovna střešovice (museum depot). This depot operates trams for lines 23, 41,42 and special rides for people who "leased" the tram. For example T3 coupe. And most of T6A5 left, but they kept 2, for museum purposes, as they had it in that list.
@@Posiman he is talking about historic trams. But most of them run on those historic lines (23,41,42). And sometimes even on normal lines. Not KT8D5. Thats not running, because they don't have parts for it to run. Only on some special events it will show up.
An interesting point - The Prague tram network was planned to go underground too. At the end, the Prague metro has been bored and serves instead of underground tram line.
@@Ondrus21 Je otázka, jestli se Morava stala součástí Česka už dobytím knížetem Oldřichem v roce 1018, nebo prohlášením za léno českého krále roku 1348 Janem Lucemburským, každopádně v pozdějších dobách se Moravané k jednotě českých zemí vcelku hlásili (a vynutili si její trvání dokonce i v době dvojvládí Jagellonců vs. Matyáše Korvína). Morava měla nejméně dvakrát šanci být povýšena na království. V 17. století si s podobnými plány pohrával Matyáš Habsburský, a za válek o rakouské dědictví si zálusk na Moravu s Horním Slezskem, povýšenou na království, dělal saský kurfiřt Fridrich August II. Marie Terezie ho však zaskočila tím, že nečekaně přenechala Slezsko Prusům, čímž si zachránila Čechy a Moravu. Každopádně Česko jako svazek jádrových českých zemí existuje už zhruba tisíc let, rozhodně mnohem dříve než Česká republika, která poprvé v historii vznikla až v roce 1969. I ty šaliny byly v Brně mnohem dříve. Ale jestli je Brno "u nás", to je relativní - to dost závisí, které "my" máš zrovna na mysli. Třeba u nás v Čechách sice nějaké to Brno taky máme, ale buď je to kopec v Radečském hřebeni, nebo vesnička v Bratrouchově. V Česku ale Brno je druhým největším a zároveň i druhým nejlidnadějším městem. Moravské hlavní město, Olomouc, je v rámci Česka podle počtu obyvatel až šesté. Je vtipné, když je někdo tím "republikáním" tak posedlý, že pak je schopný tvrdit, že Karel IV., Hus, Komenský nebo Masaryk byli "from the Czech Republic". Jen proto, že nezná žádné jméno pro Česko.
@@breznik1197 Do roku 1918 to bylo České království a potom Československo. Potom na chvíli Protektorát Čechy a Morava, pak zase Československo a nakonec Česká republika. Česko je obyčejný patvar, který začali používat líní novináři a sportovní komentátoři, kterým se nechtělo vyslovovat ten delší název. Stojí za tím docela obyčejná pohodlnost a lenost jako ostatně za vším v dnešní době.
The iconic ČKD Tatra T1, T2 and T3 are based on American tramway concept PCC from 1930s. They are simple and very reliable tramways and they were built in huge series. Over 14000 of T3s were produced, making it the most common type in the world. Many of them exported to the former Eastern block. Eastern Germany, Yugoslavia, USSR, etc.. They were not allowed to be exported to the west, because ČKD didn't pay the licence fee.
You forgot about the Tatra T2, but otherwise very good video! Someone finally talks about Prague, too! By the way, the pronounciations are great for the fact you are not czech! Especially how you say Ř! And some bonus facts: Prague recently bought a tram "K2" from from Bratislava and it will be a new historic tram; The old T3 is not really in service anymore. There are many modernisations and variants of it that are still in service; The tram 14T does not have turnable wheels, so it has to go slower in turns; there is a line 42 that only is active on weekends and national holidays. Great video and I am excited to see more! Idk why you are so small. Hope you will get bigger!
The T2 and articulated K2 weren’t really operated in Prague (not counting factory tests or refurbished trams from other cities on the 23 service) , but very popular in my home city of Brno
They bought a K2? Is it planned to let it run on all track sections (yes, historical operational tram for Depo / Muzeum Střešovice, I understand), then? I learned a few years back that back in the time when the K2 was built, Praha showed interest in getting them and using those instead of 2 * T3 trains, but it was found that since the K2 has the same motorization as the T3, but is longer, has an additional unpowered bogie and therefore is heavier than the T3, its motorization was too weak for the steep hills, so it could'vebeen used only on some few comparatively flat sections (but never, say, on the Trojská ramp with its over 8% ascend). So, do you know if this newly obtained K2 will be available to run on the whole network, or only selected "flat" sections?
Further improvements will be laso made in 2025 after the Dvorecký bridge is completed. This bridge will create a new river crossing for trams between Smíchov and Podolí.
You obviously somewhat botched the Czech names of terminus stations, but I enjoyed these animations because it showed that (from my perspective chaotic) line system actually makes some sense. But be aware - tram lines changes from time to time due to reorganizations and track repairs. Also as other pointed out - decline in 70s was because communist wanted to replace tram network by metro and in central part of the city the succeeded in this. Also take my recommendation for some scenic parts of the network: Lihovar - Hlubočepy - K Barrandovu (very scenic route to Barrandov hill), Staroměstská - Palackého náměstí - Nádraží Braník - Nádraží Modřany (the riverside line), Kobylisy - Trojská - Nádraží Holešovice (semi-rural line to Kobylisy hill), after it's repairs ends Biskupcova - Palmovka tramway bridge also got some nice views and for city centre line 23 is recommended.
May I add Staroměstská - Královský letohrádek / Chotkovy sady, along the Chotkova serpentine? :) It offers a great view over the city, and the U-bend halfway is most interesting to see and ride through.
Hi, Sir_Mac here, a local, living in Prague for a whole life. 1) In 60's, 70's and 80's, the tracks were cancelled because the main (communist) idea was that METRO and BUSES will cover everything. They've tried to dispose of trams completely, but they failed. 2) If you can look at Prague map, let's say from the year of 1970, you will see that the vast majority of the cancelled tracks covered Prague centre and south-east part of Prague. 3) THANKFULLY, those cancelled tracks will be (and I hope are going to be) restored in near or longer future.
@@Papinak2 - YES , because the Tatra-T3(D) was planned for Dresden but it was to wide , so it ended up in Schwerin (my city of birth) & Dresden got the T4 ( I call it the slim T3 )
Thanks for this really insightful video. Are you going to update it soon as it currently only looks at the diversionary routes in place when the viaduct between Palmovka and Ohrada was being reconstructed? Of course, all of the extensions you mention are now open and more are on the way or even in build. Your work is superb. Michael
Thank you! In principle I will not be able to keep track of each and every opening and reopening, my videos are something I make next to a fulltime job and I am not living in Czechia… If I happen to be in Prague again (or in any other city on my channel), I might do something on this as a sort of filler video in between.
@@realdronthego your work is excellent. Your pronunciation of Czech and Polish is superb. I am off to Prague again at the end of April and will visit Brno and Olomouc too. I will be videoing for my TH-cam channel: Podbaba Transport.... if you would like to take a look, there are more than 500 presentations on there. Michael
The legendary Českomoravska Kolben - Danek 😍😍🥰 Whoa! I really love Czech trams. It is a testament of hardwork and Czech tram quality. The trams are not just beautiful, it IS the lifeblood of the city. Public transport makes people equal. Rich and poor ride it (except in the US). Tram networks should be treated as a utility and not a liability of the poor. Its a great honor that Manila MRT3 trains are Made by ČKD Tatra. Unfortunately, the Tatra RT8D5M (KT8D5N high floor version) is the last one they built before being taken over by Siemens. It is still in active service and has a ridership of 200k to 300k per day or more than a million per week.
I strongly dislike the 14T ones, they are not spacious and frankly, the design is odd. Honestly, the best thing is when I am waiting for a tram and a 23 line comes and it's one of the really old ones with leather seats and I am going where it is going, so I get on and it's very special. The BEST. The DPP also has some of the VERY old trams and they rent them out - want to ride in a super old tram from the late 1800s? Yea, sure. if it's a wedding, we'll let the groom/bride even drive! Another fun thing is that in the summer, some students (usually of the technical kind) go and drive the trams as a summer job. (There are special "driving school" rebuilt trams, and in the winter ones that get sand into the tracks to increase friction and also ones that oil them so that they don't screech as is needed. This winter, there are a lot of trams with christmas lights and wintery pictures on them. Ahhh. I have so many pictures, I am like a kid whenever I see them!) I could go on and on about the metro and the buses, too. Compared to like London or Paris, ours are clean. The metro is also like a big refrigerator in the summer, so people are advised to actively choose to take it in heatwaves. The cult of the Prague transportation system is large and I am a proud member. The experience, altough sometimes mundane and every-day for me, is great. Trams are a comfortable way to commute, even tough they do make horrible sounds in turns sometimes. The DPP is also getting around informing people about themsleves - there are trams with a count of how many people have been ran over (yes, spooky, but raises awarness about how dangerous it can be to not give way to a tram) or about how much electricity they use up, how long the tracs are etc. all these little fun facts. There is so much history and pop culture tied to trams, I can't fit how much I bloody love trams on here. Prague indeed is walkable, but the public transport is clean, spacious and makes you wanna not walk.
I wanted to ask about the "Tatra KT8N2", as for the longest time I believed it was "KT8D5", but then the video said "KT8N2", but then there's no Wikipedia page for that model, so do you by chance know the difference? Also, I loved your video!
It seems to be part of the same family. On Wikipedia they refer to it as KT8D5.N2P. But I used the company’s own data/info, wherein this type is referred to as KT8N2.
I've been living in Prague for almost four months now (and leaving very soon :/). While I think the old trams are very beautiful, and *I* haven't had any problems with them, they are not accessible at all for people in wheelchairs (unless they have been converted, of course). I find myself being grateful for not being in a wheelchair, and especially not beong in a wheelchair in Prague. The narrow sidewalks, cobbled streets, and the curious case of elevators placed *between* the floors of a building and having you walk up stairs anyways, would make it quite tedious having a disability. Of course, I can't tell what those who face these challenges daily actually think, but I hope to think that every major construction and renovation projects (at least in public spaces/buildings) take accessibility into account.
All the newer types of trams in Prague have easy access for wheelchairs, some of the old T3s are rebuilt to have that access too. In tram timetables it is clearly stated which of the coming trams have a wheelchair access, so you can plan your trip well in advance.
;Like a boy born in Prague must give you big thumb up.Great video mate.I have moved out of Prague,coz the nature just 30km behind is so amazing,but I never liked metro,always better spent more time in beutiful tram!!!!
Some T3s are being rebuilt to T3R.PLF, which is a variant with low-floor middle section. In the long term, about 100 T3R.PLFs are to be used on the night lines. Since the network keeps being expanded and few new trams are being purchased (even if all the 52T options are going to be exercised) and the T6s were retired few years ago, I think we are going to see T3s for many more years.
Yeah Prague's public transport is amazing. But to be the perfect system, public transport system vehicles would need to have a priority and separate lanes.
They mostly have where it's possible. Center of the city is historical and there is no other way. The system is one of the best in the world, car is needed only for shopping and visiting places outside the city. Inside the city it's always faster to go by public transport. And cheaper too, one year ticket costs 161$ so 43 cents per day.
@@realdronthego I checked the Wikipedia on both and the numbers seem quite fishy. T3 supposedly 13991 units and KTM-5 14991 units, exactly 1000 more. That's either an extreme coincidence or Soviet/Russian propaganda, lol. The source cited for the KTM number is also just some random Russian internet magazine/blog which itself only says 14000, so I have no idea where the number 14991 came from.
You should have seen Brno in it's hayday. We were and still are the most diverse system. T3, K2, KT8N2, KT8D5, RT6N1, T6, K3rn, T15, Vario LFR1 and 2... We've become known as the collectors system for a while... Sadly, T3 and K2 trams are going slowly away and soon, we'll lose KT8 lineup, as these are getting replaced. As for RT6N1, I believe, that it is the best tram from passengers perspecitve out there. Sadly, it's really the A380 of trams these days.
I have to presume that large tram order that will be arriving in the late 2020s will kill off most of the remaining T3s. So probably the sooner the better to get over there.
The numbers of passengers are torn from context... It has to be said that Prague has some 1 200 000 citizens. Aaand places that arent connected by trams/metro use extensive Bus network which always stop at some meeting point of trams and/or metro. Also outer city bus network to connect Prague with all the towns and villages around is also pretty important as well as network of P+R parkings at all ending stations of metro... If you live anywhere IN prague, you can reach any point of the city in less than hour. Only thing someone needs a car in Prague is some big shopping and getting out of Prague basically. And even if you are from the outside, you dont really need a car IN the city. Just stop at P+R and take a Metro. Parking ticket there is about 1,20 Euro for a day and whole day Public pass is like what, 5 Euro? Full Monthly pass for some 20 Euro, Year pass for some 150 for innner city (P, O, B pass for Metro, all Trams all busses with number lower than 300, Trains of the S line - yes you can travel in train from one station to another. There is also Hanging cabin line to get to Petřinská rozhledna and on boat river crossings in price). Once you wanna take train/bus outside of Prague, system of intercity bus (300+ number) falls under Prague public transport. Your price is based on starting and ending circle. So... You can get anywhere, pretty quick and in case of year pass for lesser than a price of a single fake snickers-like chocobar. :)
Hi, thanks! yeah, I should have mentioned them, but not as “regular” route, as they require a special ticket. 23 is operated as a regular route on the same ticket🚋🚏🎫
I love this vid it is awesome I try finding information about czech trams but I can not because most of them are czech. I keep liking and subscribing and I share this vid. But btw you forgot line 42. And btw some the lines like 2 switch a lot.
They would not run on today´s voltage I bet. They were one of the first attempts in the world, and I think the electricity was on the road, not above. Lot of people complained about their safety and it was quite quickly replaced.
Give him some props for trying to pronounce all these words. Betcha you couldn't perfectly pronounce some funny foreign words you've never seen before.

Best public transport in any given city on earth! Tram, Metro and buses reach everywhere and all are with the same subscription.
You forgot the S trains as well :)
You forgot to mention that the network is like this because of the reconstruction of the Ohrada - Palmovka bridge. Normally most of the lines have different routes, such as line 1 which normally starts at Sídliště Petřiny and ends at Spojovací, or line 10 which normally starts at Sídliště Řepy and ends at Sídliště Ďáblice. I could go on and on since this reconstruction affected so many lines, but i thought it would atleast be worth a mention.
No
I believe in the 2 or 3 or of June the ohrada - palmovka bridge should be open and operational
So line 1,10,19 should we back in their normal routes

Trams are a huge part of the public transport in Prague, i can't imagine what it would be without them, also imagine trying to remember all of this :D
By the way, the tram routes in Prague and their numbers has already changed so many times that most line numbers no longer have historical continuity and timeless identity. Rather, individual track sections and branches have their own identity. The Modřany track as a so-called "rychlodráha" from the time of late socialism, late 1980s. The Barrandov track from early 2000s as an architectural exhibition, with monumental stations, an elevated section and two tunnels. Radial tracks with a tram strip in the middle of the street towards the city periphery, built from 1930s to 1980s. Narrow passages through the city center, the most picturesque in Malá Strana, and the narrow passages at Letenská street or Křižovnické náměstí, and the serpentine of Chotkova street through the castle moat. The most congested traffic arteries Jindřišská-Vodičkova, or Ječná, and Spálená - Národní. The steepest tram line in Trojská street, with special safety regulations. The most "natural" section between the Ohrada and Krejcárek stops, resembling a railway, and the elevated track across the valley from Krejcárek to Palmovka. You mentioned the specific section along the Prague Castle, where the track is divided by a line of old trees, or led on the crest of the baroque city walls. The sunken tram junction at Vltavská, and tram tunnels under intersections at Bulhar, Těšnov and Třebenická ( in addition to the two mentioned in Barrandov). The atmosphere of old times breathes the most from the old depots as Strašnice, Střešovice, Žižkov or Kobylisy (or the abandoned at Vinohrady/Orionka), or from the track loop at Výstaviště, in the park among old trees.
very good video, as a prague resident my self, i can praise this video for acurate and good informations.
Apart from the trams on regular operation there are also special historical lines 41 and 42 operating only in summer and using even older historical designs.
And tram enthisiasts can hire a historical tram for a party, also for this purpose there is a luxury party tram T3 Coupé.
And a relatively new but instantly beloved addition Mazací tramvaj, a modified Tatra T3CS used for greasing the rails and watering the grass belts. There is a non-stop live stream when it's operating and in christmas season it rides around the city with a christmas tree with colours remotely controlled by anyone over internet.
The best thing is that these are flippin imortal, literally nothing phases T3 they dont care is they rot, freeze or get wet, this thing will outlive most of us.
Happy to work on them.
Close to them with reliability is T 800

Been living in Prague my whole life, can say this video is 100% right about everything. Also, I love how you pronounce the start/end stations in english at around 4:30 :D
Thank you!😁
The German R makes it sound funny.
The automatic subtitles are great, never thought that Libuš could be called Lee Bush 😀it is good they didnt try to say Vypich, like Vypič 😀You should have seen line 9 at roush hour, it is totally jamed, like line C of metro
Jsem sice Čech, ale pár měsíců poté, co jsem se přestěhoval za studiem do Prahy jsem měl nutkání číst "Vypich" jako "Vajpič". 😂
No, not good. I used to caption other people's video when this site had something called community submissions and I was disappointed when that was removed.
Your Czech pronunciation is so cute, I love it!
Fun fact. My grand grandmother worked in Tatra Smíchov where T3 was made. We lived next to the factory. Now there is a shopping mall.. Well, at least the trams still serve all around the world. Best tram imo, but you might call me biased. 😆
Lovely video!
Suggestion for improvement - unless I'm mistaken you have forgot to mention night trams 91-99 (quite useful after party) with a central transfer stop "Lazarska".
Thanks! I mentioned the night trams and that they meet at Lazarska. But I did not call every route from 91-99 on this one :)
Remember how you told about all the extensions going on? Well, the extension from Holyne to Slivenec got recently opened, Sídliště Modřany to Libuš also opened few months ago and Divoka Šárka to Sídliště Dedine is opening within a week, stunning how fast is the pace of expansion at the moment!
I’m following it! Great to see it all becoming reality! Good stuff!
You could maybe in future check another czech city - Ostrava. It has some new shiny vehicles in its fleet
8:30 there aren't only 2 historic trams. There are more. From 2 axle Ringhofer trams with multiple old coaches, through tatra T1, T2, T3,(T4 as a view tram), T6 to KT8D5. And some work trams too.
There are more, but they somehow are not mentioned in the fleet data www.dpp.cz/spolecnost/o-spolecnosti/dpp-v-datech

@@realdronthego That site shows trams, that run on normal lines or 23. They don't show trams, which are at vozovna střešovice (museum depot). This depot operates trams for lines 23, 41,42 and special rides for people who "leased" the tram. For example T3 coupe. And most of T6A5 left, but they kept 2, for museum purposes, as they had it in that list.

@@Posiman he is talking about historic trams. But most of them run on those historic lines (23,41,42). And sometimes even on normal lines. Not KT8D5. Thats not running, because they don't have parts for it to run. Only on some special events it will show up.
Beautiful city + very nice and informative video! 🙂

TH-cam recommendations are weird :D Greetings from Pankrác.
An interesting point - The Prague tram network was planned to go underground too. At the end, the Prague metro has been bored and serves instead of underground tram line.
Another interesting point - Prague has a few tram request stops. A bell icon appears when one of those stops is displayed onboard.
your channel is kinda underrated, also hi from Brno (2nd largest city in czechia)
To je zajímavý. Ta Čechie má stejné názvy měst jako Česká republika. Dokonce i u nás je Brno druhé největší město.
@@Ondrus21 haha vtipný
@@OlgaAnderson07 Musíš rozlišovat mezi slovy "vtipný" a "směšný". Ale souhlasím, ten název je opravdu směšný.
@@Ondrus21 Je otázka, jestli se Morava stala součástí Česka už dobytím knížetem Oldřichem v roce 1018, nebo prohlášením za léno českého krále roku 1348 Janem Lucemburským, každopádně v pozdějších dobách se Moravané k jednotě českých zemí vcelku hlásili (a vynutili si její trvání dokonce i v době dvojvládí Jagellonců vs. Matyáše Korvína).
Morava měla nejméně dvakrát šanci být povýšena na království. V 17. století si s podobnými plány pohrával Matyáš Habsburský, a za válek o rakouské dědictví si zálusk na Moravu s Horním Slezskem, povýšenou na království, dělal saský kurfiřt Fridrich August II. Marie Terezie ho však zaskočila tím, že nečekaně přenechala Slezsko Prusům, čímž si zachránila Čechy a Moravu.
Každopádně Česko jako svazek jádrových českých zemí existuje už zhruba tisíc let, rozhodně mnohem dříve než Česká republika, která poprvé v historii vznikla až v roce 1969. I ty šaliny byly v Brně mnohem dříve. Ale jestli je Brno "u nás", to je relativní - to dost závisí, které "my" máš zrovna na mysli. Třeba u nás v Čechách sice nějaké to Brno taky máme, ale buď je to kopec v Radečském hřebeni, nebo vesnička v Bratrouchově. V Česku ale Brno je druhým největším a zároveň i druhým nejlidnadějším městem. Moravské hlavní město, Olomouc, je v rámci Česka podle počtu obyvatel až šesté.
Je vtipné, když je někdo tím "republikáním" tak posedlý, že pak je schopný tvrdit, že Karel IV., Hus, Komenský nebo Masaryk byli "from the Czech Republic". Jen proto, že nezná žádné jméno pro Česko.
@@breznik1197 Do roku 1918 to bylo České království a potom Československo. Potom na chvíli Protektorát Čechy a Morava, pak zase Československo a nakonec Česká republika.

The iconic ČKD Tatra T1, T2 and T3 are based on American tramway concept PCC from 1930s. They are simple and very reliable tramways and they were built in huge series. Over 14000 of T3s were produced, making it the most common type in the world. Many of them exported to the former Eastern block. Eastern Germany, Yugoslavia, USSR, etc.. They were not allowed to be exported to the west, because ČKD didn't pay the licence fee.
I think KTM-5 is the most produced, Tatra T3 is second
But Tatras are more used now, because they're not failing apart at this point
You forgot about the Tatra T2, but otherwise very good video! Someone finally talks about Prague, too! By the way, the pronounciations are great for the fact you are not czech! Especially how you say Ř! And some bonus facts: Prague recently bought a tram "K2" from from Bratislava and it will be a new historic tram; The old T3 is not really in service anymore. There are many modernisations and variants of it that are still in service; The tram 14T does not have turnable wheels, so it has to go slower in turns; there is a line 42 that only is active on weekends and national holidays. Great video and I am excited to see more! Idk why you are so small. Hope you will get bigger!
The T2 and articulated K2 weren’t really operated in Prague (not counting factory tests or refurbished trams from other cities on the 23 service) , but very popular in my home city of Brno
They bought a K2? Is it planned to let it run on all track sections (yes, historical operational tram for Depo / Muzeum Střešovice, I understand), then? I learned a few years back that back in the time when the K2 was built, Praha showed interest in getting them and using those instead of 2 * T3 trains, but it was found that since the K2 has the same motorization as the T3, but is longer, has an additional unpowered bogie and therefore is heavier than the T3, its motorization was too weak for the steep hills, so it could'vebeen used only on some few comparatively flat sections (but never, say, on the Trojská ramp with its over 8% ascend). So, do you know if this newly obtained K2 will be available to run on the whole network, or only selected "flat" sections?
@@mic08041977 Ex-Bratislava, and I’m sure it’ll be used mainly on the 23 line, which iirc is comparably flat
@@cheezyvids ... except for the Chotková, which can become really tricky to drive with a K2, I'm sure ;)
@@mic08041977 nothing’s impossible, like the Pekařská street is also quite steep and K2’s have rode on it for decades😉
Further improvements will be laso made in 2025 after the Dvorecký bridge is completed. This bridge will create a new river crossing for trams between Smíchov and Podolí.
I love all the video from from my neighborhood [Mala Strana].
You obviously somewhat botched the Czech names of terminus stations, but I enjoyed these animations because it showed that (from my perspective chaotic) line system actually makes some sense. But be aware - tram lines changes from time to time due to reorganizations and track repairs.
Also as other pointed out - decline in 70s was because communist wanted to replace tram network by metro and in central part of the city the succeeded in this.
Also take my recommendation for some scenic parts of the network: Lihovar - Hlubočepy - K Barrandovu (very scenic route to Barrandov hill), Staroměstská - Palackého náměstí - Nádraží Braník - Nádraží Modřany (the riverside line), Kobylisy - Trojská - Nádraží Holešovice (semi-rural line to Kobylisy hill), after it's repairs ends Biskupcova - Palmovka tramway bridge also got some nice views and for city centre line 23 is recommended.
May I add Staroměstská - Královský letohrádek / Chotkovy sady, along the Chotkova serpentine? :) It offers a great view over the city, and the U-bend halfway is most interesting to see and ride through.
@@mic08041977 that's covered by line 23. But you are right - this has nice view of city centre.
Hi, Sir_Mac here,
a local, living in Prague for a whole life.
1) In 60's, 70's and 80's, the tracks were cancelled because the main (communist) idea was that METRO and BUSES will cover everything. They've tried to dispose of trams completely, but they failed.
2) If you can look at Prague map, let's say from the year of 1970, you will see that the vast majority of the cancelled tracks covered Prague centre and south-east part of Prague.
3) THANKFULLY, those cancelled tracks will be (and I hope are going to be) restored in near or longer future.
Amazing video, useful info...and I'm from Prague! Thanks for sharing this very unique part of the city.
We had the Tatra-T3 (the 2nd most build Tram ever) in (East-) Germany as well as T3D (the "D" means "Deutschland") ... in Schwerin & Leipzig etc.
Also T4 - specifialy developed for Dresden (30cm narrower than T3)
@@Papinak2 -
YES , because the Tatra-T3(D) was planned for Dresden but it was to wide , so it ended up in Schwerin (my city of birth) & Dresden got the T4 ( I call it the slim T3 )
Thanks for this really insightful video. Are you going to update it soon as it currently only looks at the diversionary routes in place when the viaduct between Palmovka and Ohrada was being reconstructed? Of course, all of the extensions you mention are now open and more are on the way or even in build. Your work is superb. Michael
Thank you! In principle I will not be able to keep track of each and every opening and reopening, my videos are something I make next to a fulltime job and I am not living in Czechia… If I happen to be in Prague again (or in any other city on my channel), I might do something on this as a sort of filler video in between.

Whoa! I really love Czech trams. It is a testament of hardwork and Czech tram quality. The trams are not just beautiful, it IS the lifeblood of the city. Public transport makes people equal. Rich and poor ride it (except in the US). Tram networks should be treated as a utility and not a liability of the poor.
Its a great honor that Manila MRT3 trains are Made by ČKD Tatra. Unfortunately, the Tatra RT8D5M (KT8D5N high floor version) is the last one they built before being taken over by Siemens. It is still in active service and has a ridership of 200k to 300k per day or more than a million per week.
Myslela jsem, že tu bude ukázka z filmu Gray Man, protože takhle u nás jezdí tramvaje každý den! 😎
I strongly dislike the 14T ones, they are not spacious and frankly, the design is odd. Honestly, the best thing is when I am waiting for a tram and a 23 line comes and it's one of the really old ones with leather seats and I am going where it is going, so I get on and it's very special. The BEST. The DPP also has some of the VERY old trams and they rent them out - want to ride in a super old tram from the late 1800s? Yea, sure. if it's a wedding, we'll let the groom/bride even drive! Another fun thing is that in the summer, some students (usually of the technical kind) go and drive the trams as a summer job. (There are special "driving school" rebuilt trams, and in the winter ones that get sand into the tracks to increase friction and also ones that oil them so that they don't screech as is needed. This winter, there are a lot of trams with christmas lights and wintery pictures on them. Ahhh. I have so many pictures, I am like a kid whenever I see them!) I could go on and on about the metro and the buses, too. Compared to like London or Paris, ours are clean. The metro is also like a big refrigerator in the summer, so people are advised to actively choose to take it in heatwaves. The cult of the Prague transportation system is large and I am a proud member. The experience, altough sometimes mundane and every-day for me, is great. Trams are a comfortable way to commute, even tough they do make horrible sounds in turns sometimes. The DPP is also getting around informing people about themsleves - there are trams with a count of how many people have been ran over (yes, spooky, but raises awarness about how dangerous it can be to not give way to a tram) or about how much electricity they use up, how long the tracs are etc. all these little fun facts. There is so much history and pop culture tied to trams, I can't fit how much I bloody love trams on here. Prague indeed is walkable, but the public transport is clean, spacious and makes you wanna not walk.
Nice video, cheers from Prague.
u have pretty good pronounciation of the czech station names
I wanted to ask about the "Tatra KT8N2", as for the longest time I believed it was "KT8D5", but then the video said "KT8N2", but then there's no Wikipedia page for that model, so do you by chance know the difference? Also, I loved your video!

I've been living in Prague for almost four months now (and leaving very soon :/). While I think the old trams are very beautiful, and *I* haven't had any problems with them, they are not accessible at all for people in wheelchairs (unless they have been converted, of course). I find myself being grateful for not being in a wheelchair, and especially not beong in a wheelchair in Prague. The narrow sidewalks, cobbled streets, and the curious case of elevators placed *between* the floors of a building and having you walk up stairs anyways, would make it quite tedious having a disability.
Of course, I can't tell what those who face these challenges daily actually think, but I hope to think that every major construction and renovation projects (at least in public spaces/buildings) take accessibility into account.
All the newer types of trams in Prague have easy access for wheelchairs, some of the old T3s are rebuilt to have that access too. In tram timetables it is clearly stated which of the coming trams have a wheelchair access, so you can plan your trip well in advance.
When I have enough time I prefer to wait for the new tram Škoda 29T or 30T here in Bratislava. No mercy for nostalgia.
Correction, basically all T3s are "modernized" (rebuild almoast completelly anew.
if a tram has yellow on the front (2:37) it means that it has air conditioning
which is turned off

Protect the T3 at all cost dear citizens of Prague !
Some T3s are being rebuilt to T3R.PLF, which is a variant with low-floor middle section. In the long term, about 100 T3R.PLFs are to be used on the night lines.
Since the network keeps being expanded and few new trams are being purchased (even if all the 52T options are going to be exercised) and the T6s were retired few years ago, I think we are going to see T3s for many more years.
Yeah Prague's public transport is amazing. But to be the perfect system, public transport system vehicles would need to have a priority and separate lanes.
They mostly have where it's possible. Center of the city is historical and there is no other way. The system is one of the best in the world, car is needed only for shopping and visiting places outside the city. Inside the city it's always faster to go by public transport. And cheaper too, one year ticket costs 161$ so 43 cents per day.
2:02 the Tatra T3 is not the *second* most produced tram type in the world, it is *THE most produced tram type in the world*

The source cited for the KTM number is also just some random Russian internet magazine/blog which itself only says 14000, so I have no idea where the number 14991 came from.

You should have seen Brno in it's hayday. We were and still are the most diverse system. T3, K2, KT8N2, KT8D5, RT6N1, T6, K3rn, T15, Vario LFR1 and 2... We've become known as the collectors system for a while... Sadly, T3 and K2 trams are going slowly away and soon, we'll lose KT8 lineup, as these are getting replaced. As for RT6N1, I believe, that it is the best tram from passengers perspecitve out there. Sadly, it's really the A380 of trams these days.
Cože? KT8 taky? Co bude jezdit jako 8? Jezdí vůbec něco jinýho jako 8 a může teď s novíma Bohunicema?
@@FDKeroks cosi noveho je ma nahradit. Vypada to jak oboustrannej drak
I have to presume that large tram order that will be arriving in the late 2020s will kill off most of the remaining T3s. So probably the sooner the better to get over there.
If we talk about tram being iconic, I think Lisbon has the most iconic tram system. Anyway Tram in Prague is great, as well as the city
I agree. The Lisbon trams are best.
The numbers of passengers are torn from context... It has to be said that Prague has some 1 200 000 citizens. Aaand places that arent connected by trams/metro use extensive Bus network which always stop at some meeting point of trams and/or metro. Also outer city bus network to connect Prague with all the towns and villages around is also pretty important as well as network of P+R parkings at all ending stations of metro... If you live anywhere IN prague, you can reach any point of the city in less than hour.
Only thing someone needs a car in Prague is some big shopping and getting out of Prague basically. And even if you are from the outside, you dont really need a car IN the city. Just stop at P+R and take a Metro. Parking ticket there is about 1,20 Euro for a day and whole day Public pass is like what, 5 Euro? Full Monthly pass for some 20 Euro, Year pass for some 150 for innner city (P, O, B pass for Metro, all Trams all busses with number lower than 300, Trains of the S line - yes you can travel in train from one station to another. There is also Hanging cabin line to get to Petřinská rozhledna and on boat river crossings in price).
Once you wanna take train/bus outside of Prague, system of intercity bus (300+ number) falls under Prague public transport. Your price is based on starting and ending circle.
So... You can get anywhere, pretty quick and in case of year pass for lesser than a price of a single fake snickers-like chocobar. :)
Nice video, but you forgot lines: 41 (historic line), 42 (historic line)
